Tom was not a baseball superstar, but he has led a charmed life
nonetheless. He had one season in the big leagues where he had 20 homers and 80
RBIs, so he did have a good taste of success as a hitter. After his career, he
served as a major-league general manager. And afterwards, his son Ben was a
slugging outfielder and winner of the Rookie-of-the-Year award. This is Tom's
1979 Topps card; two more cards appear below.
